UV vs HPLC Testing for Shikonin: Which Method is More Accurate?

Welcome to Xi'an B-Thriving I/E Co, Ltd., a leading supplier and manufacturer of high-quality natural plant extracts. We are proud to introduce our latest product - Shikonin.

Shikonin is a bioactive compound found in the roots of the plant Lithospermum erythrorhizon. It has a wide range of therapeutic properties, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and antitumor effects. To ensure the purity and quality of our Shikonin extract, we use advanced testing methods such as UV and HPLC analysis.

UV testing is a non-destructive and simple method for identifying the presence and quantity of Shikonin in our extract. However, HPLC testing provides a more precise and accurate measurement of Shikonin content, ensuring consistent quality and potency in each batch.

At Xi'an B-Thriving I/E Co, Ltd., we are committed to providing our customers with the highest quality plant extracts. If you are looking for a reliable supplier of Shikonin or other natural extracts, look no further than Xi'an B-Thriving I/E Co, Ltd. Contact us today to learn more about our products and services.

  • Introducing our latest product, a rapid and reliable method for testing shikonin content in medicinal herbs – the UV spectroscopy technique. Compared to the traditional HPLC method, UV spectroscopy has proven to be quicker, more cost-efficient and requires less sample preparation. This method involves measuring the absorbance of shikonin molecules at a specific wavelength, which enables the quantification of shikonin content. Shikonin, a natural red pigment found in Lithospermum erythrorhizon and used as a traditional Chinese medicine for centuries, has various bioactivities such as anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and anti-cancer. However, the concentration of shikonin can differ greatly depending on the plant parts and a variety of factors such as cultivation method and harvest time. This makes the quality control of medicinal herbs containing shikonin challenging. Our UV spectroscopy technique provides an easy and efficient way to determine the content and purity of shikonin in various herbal samples. With minimal instrument and operator requirements, the UV method is ideal for small to medium-sized pharmaceutical and research laboratories that need a quick and reliable method for shikonin testing. Upgrade your quality control process with our UV spectroscopy technique today.
